chmod not working (Pro 6, 4.2.19)

Yeah, I know that I can void my warranty and use the ssh add on to do this... but (a) having to ssh into the unit when I already have that share mounted and have a local script wanting to chmod a file is a royal pain; and (b) voiding a multi-year warranty is not at all an attractive idea. chmod used to work just fine for me on my NV+'s until I had to restore to factory defaults and backup/move the shares around.
This is very frustrating since the whole idea of any NAS is to be able to mount it (SMB) and do anything you could normally do with any other SMB/NFS/AFP mounted file system.
